Participants were asked to indicate which formats were included in local music collections (fig. 1). We asked participants where and how they provide access to local music collections and how they are preserved. When asked if local music collections have been catalogued, participants responded that some sort of cataloging has been done.
We asked participants to identify the users of their local music collections and describe the ways in which the collections are used. We asked participants how they manage promotion and outreach for their local music collection. The survey results show that music is collected locally in various types of libraries across Canada.
We propose a more comprehensive approach to community outreach in order to collect local music.
